A Friend
QUOTE you are not a Prophet over me
Perhaps, however, I prophesied regarding your current actions to you long ago. In an email in which you wrote on Sept. 14, 2008 [..]
This was part of the private email exchange between you and I. Even several emails after this you were very friendly as I tried to find a way to help you. This prophecy was made long before you had expressed any disapproval toward me, my actions or my beliefs. If that wasn't a prophecy regarding your actions against me, then I do not know what is. (However, I would agree that I was not being a prophet over you, but I was being a prophet over my own life and was told to protect myself from you and encouraged you in a way I thought would prevent you from attacking me. Unfortunately it hasn't as yet helped.)
Regarding the accusation of being Elliaison, we tried to explain before in our private emails:
- Although I did have significant input in the article "By Their Fruits Ye Shall Know Them", I have not been authorized to take credit for Elliaison's writings, and so should not have stated so in my earlier post.
- To say my wife and I ARE Elliaison is false, inaccurate and misleading.
- We have on occasion represented their work and spoken for them as if we were "one".
- I hardly understand "Elliaison". And for you to make statements like this tells me that you know even less than I do at this time.
- Privacy is not a deception. It is the glory of God to conceal a thing. But your making a statement that I am Elliaison is inaccurate and a falsehood.
- Do not make statements about things you do not understand.
- Those who are spiritually minded will see. Those who are not will find themselves in spiritual darkness.
As predicted, in multiple ways, you have made an assassination attempt on my character saying I am both a liar and satanic. Privacy is not a lie. There is nothing wrong with desiring to remain anonymous. In my mind, heaven is where people treat others how they want to be treated. We attempt to Follow Christ's example, where even the 'sinner" was not condemned by him, but treated with love and kindness and 'set free" from their accusers, and those who would have sought to destroy them.
QUOTE "People hate evil more than they love good"¦"
You cannot and do not have the Spirit unless you are experiencing it's fruits. "
QUOTE But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith," - Gal. 5:22
QUOTE (FarSeer)
To be a member of the Church of the First Born is not something you boast of on a public forum"¦Amonhi, you"re a fraud.
A Fraud is defined as: A person who uses, "deceit, trickery, sharp practice, or breach of confidence, perpetrated for profit or to gain some unfair or dishonest advantage." - Dictionary.com
In order for me to be a fraud, I would have to be intentionally deceiving you. If on the other hand, if am being honest in my belief, then I am not a fraud. I have said that I have my calling and election made sure. And it is true, I do. And the Lord has graciously granted me a second witness in this forum. LDS_Forever asked me point blank if I had received my calling and election made sure. After responding affirmatively, and telling her that the spirit told me she already knew by the spirit, I requested that she clarify how she "already knew". To this, Lds_Forever said, "I don't know, I just felt it.... And yes, I expected you to tell me you had."
Later she recanted slightly and said, "I do think he had his Call and Election Made Sure now by whose authority and if indeed comes from God that's another different issue."
I know that she received a witness, because the spirit told me that it told her. She knew, (And this was all expressed in the calling and election thread.) I would be surprised if she were going to blaspheme the Holy Ghost by denying it's witness. Even with her slight recant, we agree that I had an experience in which I received a witness of my calling and election made sure, (from Satan or God). Either way, whether I was deceived by Satan or blessed by God, I am not a fraud. Even in the worse case scenario, I am the deceived (not the deceiver) and in the best case I am as I say.
QUOTE (Farseer)
To do so tells the story that Amonhi wishes YOU and ME to believe that he is somehow above us, more spiritual, more knowledgeable, touched by the Savior, and therefore you should hang on his every word as Gospel Truth (can you say hallelujah - amen!)
I have never pointed anyone to me, only to God. No one needs me when they have God, and God is free for everyone. I am no better than you or anyone else. I live in a world of equals. I have never felt Christ treat me like he was greater than I or anyone else, I try to follow that example. The entire gospel message is about making us equal with Christ and ultimately equal with God. God wants to be our friend, not our master. If I have treated anyone as less than myself, then I apologize and ask for your forgiveness as a foible of being a fallible man.
QUOTE (Dbacker)
Either you believe the Church to be the church set up by God or you believe it to be a false church.
I have addressed this before. Yes, this church was setup by God as a stepping stone to bring us back into God's presence. Had God used stepping stones in the past? Yes. Is it any wonder that in the "fullness of times" God would restore "all things" including the stepping stones? Yours is the same argument that Christ addressed when he said,
QUOTE
 17 ¶ Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. - Matt. 5:17
QUOTE (Dbacker)
At least have the decency to say I am not member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints"¦
I cannot say this without lying, and I am pleased about that membership.
QUOTE (Dbackes)
I am frustrated by individuals who say they have moved on to a higher level and then state they have no need to keep commandments.
You wouldn't have been frustrated with Paul who said of Abraham,
QUOTE For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise. - Gal. 3:18 (Read the entire chapter as that is the subject it covers.
QUOTE (JB)
He actually uses the Church's own scripture to teach against the Church. I must admit that is the newest kind of infiltration I have seen here.
If you disagree with my understanding of the Scriptures, then let's go back and discuss them. I began "infiltrating" the church the day I was given a name and blessing and my name went on the church records. I am not an anti-LDS, even though it might at times be hard when some members show me as much Christ like love as you have.
QUOTE (JB)
You don't believe me, then you would not have believed Christ / Joseph...", in other words... If you do not believe me then you are in the wrong.
I said no such thing. "Believe" and 'treated" are very different words. I said, "The way you treat me, or anyone else for that matter, I"S the way you would have treated Christ or Joseph Smith". I have said nothing different than Christ himself taught when he said,
"Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me." - Matt. 25:40
Who is the least among us? Is it the prophets and apostles that we look upto or is it the sinners those we despise? In this forum right now, I would venture to say I am the least among you, the most hated and despised.
If you go back and read what I wrote, you will find that I complemented someone who disagreed with me using the same words. I was telling them thank you for being so friendly even though you disagreed with me. And this is how you would have 'treated" Christ or Joseph Smith, even if you did not believe them like the majority of the people in their day. This is how I treat others, even if I disagree with them. Do you think you are better than so many of those people back then? I do not.
Of those who disagreed with Christ or Joseph Smith, some lovingly let them be. Others became angered and venomous and sought to find fault with them and accuse them even to the point of hating them. When we disagree with another, myself included, we have the opportunity to react either lovingly with peace or with hate and war. It is all about how we treat and react to those who disagree with us or in other cases hate us. It is fine to disagree. When we do, I will either attempt to persuade or be persuaded, but never with Hate or anger. This is what I am referring to, and again, I have applauded others for their reaction using the same words.
I live my life such that if I did not recognize Christ I still would not have demanded his destruction. And was that not his message? Did he not teach,
QUOTE 32 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
 33 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
 34 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
 35 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and [you]ye shall be the children of the Highest: for He is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.[you/] - Luke 6:32-35
And finally, LDS_Forever says,
QUOTE I read all your posts within this thread and others and I am always surprised to see how you are constantly comparing yourself with the Savior, I don't even know how you do it.
Are we all not to be Saviors of our brethren? Do we all not take upon us the name or title of "Christ" at baptism? Should we not be Amonhi Christ or LDS_Forever Christ just as Jesus of Nazareth took on the name of Christ? Should we not strive to become like him by following his footsteps?
Is it not written in your law, "I said, Ye are gods"? If he called them gods, unto whom the Son of God came, and the scripture cannot be broken; Then why say ye of him, whom seeks unto the Son of God, "Thou blasphemest", because I said, I am an equal heir with the Son of God?
Seek and you shall find Satan under every rock. Or Seek and ye shall find Christ everywhere. If you want to find the good in others you will. If you want to find the evil, you will and in this way, Christ was killed.
